KMR 1250 B Unit Functions

Gasoline Engine (HONDA GX 270)

Float systemWhen float chamber (14) is empty, fuel passesfrom fuel tank into float chamber (14) via the floatvalve inlet (18). The rising fuel level causes thefloat (21) to be raised.The inflow of fuel is interrupted when the float(21) causes the float valve to close. Drawing fuelfor engine operation from the float chamber (14)causes the float (21) to be lowered, which in turnopens the float valve (18).This cyclical procedure ensures a constant levelof fuel inside the float chamber (14).

Float chamber equalizationOn the carburetor side, the airspace inside thefloat housing is connected with the outside at-mosphere by means of a channel. This facili-tates the equalization of the pressure equilibri-um inside the float chamber as the fuel level ris-es or falls.

Idling operationWhen the engine is idling, the throttle valve (4) isfully closed.– This causes negative pressure to occur be-

tween the throttle (4) and the crown of theengine piston, with the latter moving towardbottom dead center while the intake valve isopen.

– The atmospheric pressure inside the floatchamber (14) then causes fuel to be con-veyed through the main jet (15) and idle jet(2).

– The idle jet (2) controls the flow of fuel throughthe idle bypass channel (3). The fuel thenblends with the air being drawn in throughthe idle air channel (6).

– The resulting air/fuel mixture then flows intothe engine.

– The idle mixture adjusting screw (16) con-trols the volume of air/fuel mixture that is al-lowed to flow through the idle orifice (5).

Partial load operationEngine speed rises when the throttle valve (4)opens, and the volume of the air/fuel mixturebeing drawn through the idle jet (2) increases.

Full load operationIn full load operation, the throttle is wide (4) open:– Air flows through the carburetor throat, or

venturi (7). Because the diameter of the ven-turi outlet is smaller than that of the intake,the air is accelerated as it passes through.This increased flow velocity causes nega-tive pressure to occur at the outlet side of themain jet (15).

– Pressure inside the float chamber (14) isequalized via an atmospheric relief channel.Because atmospheric pressure is higher thanthe pressure in the carburetor throat (7), fuelis transported from the float chamber (14),and pressed through the main jet (15) intothe emulsion tube (12).

– The air flowing through the main air jet (10)is blended with the fuel that is flowing throughthe orifices of the emulsion tube (12).

– This mixture is then drawn into the carbure-tor throat (7), where it is enriched with moreair before passing into the engine.

Choke system functionThe choke valve (9) should be closed only whenstarting a cold engine. This causes the followingto happen:– The closed choke valve (9) allows less air to

be drawn into the carburetor throat (7).– However, the fuel volume being drawn in

through the main jet (15) remains the same.– This causes the fuel component in the air/

fuel mixture to rise, with the richer mixtureproviding easier engine starting.

Note:For information on other maintenance andadjustments of the engine, refer to the Serv-ice manual „4-Stroke Internal CombustionEngines“ (5.905-122).

– The presence of frost on any part of the LP gassystem indicates a possible leak. Close thecylinder shutoff valve (3) immediately. Applysuitable leak detection medium (soapy wateror Leak Detecting Spray 6.282-033) to gaslines, solenoid valve, gas regulator and gashose to carburetor. Open cylinder shutoff valve(3), and check for formation of bubbles. Theunit may be returned to service only after thor-ough repairs have been carried out by ap-proved specialists.

Note:The LP gas system of the unit must be in-spected by a licensed expert in 6-monthintervals. The results of each inspection mustbe made available in the form of a test cer-tificate.

– An expert is deemed to be a person who, basedon his professional education and skills, pos-sesses sufficient knowledge of, and expertisein, the field of LP gas systems, and who issufficiently familiar with applicable workingdirectives and accident prevention regulations,as well as commonly accepted procedures ofthis technology, all of the above enabling himto evaluate, determine and assess the safeoperational state of LP gas systems.

Gas system

– Opening the shutoff valve (3) on the LP gascylinder (5) causes gas to flow through the gasfilter (13). At this point, possible contaminantsare trapped in a paper filter, and metallic par-ticles from gas cylinder are removed by meansof a small magnet.

– Setting ignition key to Pos. 1 (ON) opens so-lenoid valve (14), allowing LP gas to flow fromgas filter (13) into primary chamber of gas reg-ulator (16). Here, a spring-loaded valve reduc-es gas pressure to approximately 150 mbar(2.2 psi).

– When starter begins to crank engine (10), avacuum is created in the suction channel.Through vacuum line (11), this vacuum actson low-pressure diaphragm in secondary stageof gas regulator. Diaphragm opens low-pres-sure valve, and gas can be drawn into engine.

– Pressing choke button causes choke liftingsolenoid (17) to open low-pressure valve, al-lowing gas to flow directly through carburetorand into engine. This function is particularlyimportant in cold-starting situations. To pre-vent high-level enrichment of intake mixturewith LP gas, choke button should not bepressed for longer than 3-5 seconds.

Note:The connection on cylinder shutoff valve (3)must face straight up (extraction of LP gasin gaseous state).

Gas regulator

– Engines using LP gas as a fuel are equippedwith a gas regulator which feeds LP gas to thecarburetor of a gasoline engine. The carbure-tor generates an air/fuel mixture which is drawninto the combustion chamber for ignition.

Check coarse debris flapWhen the coarse dirt flap is open, the brush rollerflings the dirt and dust away toward the frontwithout sweeping it up.The coarse debris flap (5) must open and shuteasily. If required, clean the control cable (7),and lubricate with new grease (P/N 6.288-107)or spray in with teflon spray (P/N 6.288-125).When opened, the gap of the coarse debris flap(5) should be at least 40 mm (1.58 in) wide. In itslowered state, it should trail by approx. 10 to 20mm (0.40-0.80 in).The coarse debris flap (5) is adjusted with theadjusting screw (6).

Note:If the coarse debris flap trails excessively, itmay get caught in the brush roller.

When replacing the control cable (7), care mustbe taken that the retainer (4) remains in the orig-inal horizontal position. This prevents the coarsedebris flap from being pulled inward again aftera short while, breaking the control cable as aresult.To straighten out the retainer (4) or to access theadjusting screw (6), the sheet metal guard (8)must be removed.

Check dust pickup– When sweeping on dry ground, the hatch (4)

will be opened with the lever (8) to allow airto enter the impeller fan.

– When sweeping on moist or wet ground, thehatch must be closed again to prevent mois-ture from entering the dust filter.

– When the sweeping debris container israised, it also automatically closes the hatch(4). This prevents dust or objects to be drawninto the large open intake opening (7) in thisstate.

The right-hand side panel conceals a forked,spring-loaded lever (6). When lowered almost tothe bottom position, the container presses thelever forward. This causes the container to belocked up in its end position so that it cannotswing out inadvertently during travel in moun-tainous terrain.The control cable (3) for the hatch (4) is attachedto the lever (6). Pressing the lever backward whileraising the debris container closes the hatch.Pressing the lever forward while lowering thedebris container causes the hatch (4) again to beopened by the coil spring (5).

Adjust steering free playWear and tear and stretching of the steering chain(1) may cause excessive steering free play.If steering free play becomes too large, the steeringchain must be tighted, replaced as requiredTighten steering chain– Loosen nuts of mounting bolts (2), and tighten

chain (1) by shifting steering column (3) in elon-gated holes.

– Retighten mounting nuts.

Replace chain– Loosen nuts of mounting bolts (2), and shift

steering column (3) in elongated holes farenough to allow removal of steering chain (1).

– Install new steering chain, ensuring that frontwheel points straight ahead when steering wheelis in center (non-deflected) position.

– Tighten chain (1) by shifting steering column (3)in elongated holes.

– Retighten mounting nuts
